| - Such a great night!
First of all, we were so late. SO late. I hate myself for it, but sometimes it inadvertently happens. I called in ahead and they were totally accommodating, despite my blunders.
We ordered the bulgogi beef tartare to start and it was great. Salty and crisp and just plain delicious. For our mains we ordered all sorts of different things: the Muskovy duck, the station burger, two of the brown trouts, and the butter poached halibut. All liked their food. Order the burger if you prefer more savoury things and the duck if you like a little sweetness in your mains.
For dessert, we ordered the Japanese cheesecake. It was underwhelming, order another dessert!
What made the restaurant a five star in my books was not the food, unfortunately. It was the people! Nancy was our server and she was so kind, she even let us meet the chef which was such a treat. The salted fudge at the end was also a nice touch.
Whatever the case, you MUST visit Richmond Station and see for yourself.
TIP: They can change starter sizes! We came with five people, but the beef tartare is made for four. Thankfully, they offered to make adjustments--crisis averted.
TIP for the gals: the bathroom has a bit of a step on the way out. I WARNED YA!
